Christian O’Connell has been a man nearly all his life. Well, once he was a boy, then he was a teenager, then a man, but you get what we mean. So who better to save manhood from devolving into one of those spineless newt things from the Guinness ad? For years women have had everyone from Germaine Greer to Bridget Jones to tell them how to be a woman, and who have men had? No one. That is, until now. For 10 years Christian has dispensed wisdom and advice to millions of lucky radio listeners on every topic conceivable; but it was when he saw his wife reading, and laughing at, a book called How to Kill your Husband," that he realized he had to write this book. Men are confused about what it is to be a man in a world where men use moisturizer and eat sandwiches with rocket. They need help. Here is a roadmap, a compass for men (not a sat nav they’re evil!) With his outspoken humor and ironic take on life, Christian explores male-dom; celebrating all that is great about being a man and unraveling those mysteries of masculinity that have stumped women for literally minutes. Packed full of wisdom, advice, trivia, and cheeky banter, this is the must-have book for men everywhere.
